hi VJers!

i'm kinda new here.. maybe this question is not new for sOme.

I'm not US citizen yet(need 2 more yrs) and i'm planning to have a vacation outside the country (for 2 months) is this going to affect the counting for my citizenship ? or it doesn't matter as long as you didn't exceed for 6 months?. Because last year also i had a vacation (1 month).

and can i apply for citizenship right after i got my 5 yrs here or can i do it few months before my 5th yr?

any comments or suggestions?
